About Tina
Tina Resneck is a licensed mental health counselor in Washington with 27 years of clinical experience. She helps people facing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship strain, and issues related to identity and self-esteem. Her work also addresses stress, addiction, parenting concerns, eating and sleeping problems, and career-related worries.
Tina builds a warm, accepting space where people can talk without judgment. She listens closely and focuses on what matters most to each person.
Background and approach
Sessions are practical and paced to fit individual needs and goals. Her approach centers on the person rather than a label. She uses client-centered methods to follow what a person brings into the room.
She also draws on emotionally-focused work to address relationship and attachment concerns and on mindfulness to help people manage stress and strong feelings. For those healing from traumatic events, Tina includes EMDR as one tool to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and improve daily functioning.
She pairs that with existential ideas when people want to explore meaning, purpose, or big life questions. Tina has worked across many life stages and situations, including adoption and foster care issues, blended family concerns, caregiver stress, and aging-related questions. She supports people dealing with abandonment, communication problems, codependency, and compassion fatigue.
Sessions are offered in English and are available to international clients. She uses a collaborative style that helps people set clear goals and try small changes that add up over time.
How Tina’s approaches translate to online therapy
Tina blends client-centered work and emotionally-focused therapy in ways that suit remote care. Client-centered therapy means sessions follow what the person brings that day, offering space to be heard and practical steps toward goals. Emotionally-focused therapy helps people name difficult feelings and improve attachment and communication patterns in relationships.She also uses EMDR for those recovering from trauma, a structured method that can reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and make them easier to manage day to day. In online sessions EMDR can be adapted so a person can do paced eye-movement or other bilateral stimulation while Tina guides the process.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. Tina will talk with a person about their goals and try methods that fit their needs and comfort level. She adjusts pacing and tools over time based on what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people use visual cues during deeper work, phone sessions use less bandwidth or can be an easier fit during busy days, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging works for ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it simpler to schedule therapy around life and maintain steady progress.
